Edit: I don’t drink alcohol, it’s just the best way to describe it. From comments I’ll be going on a low carb diet, thank you all.

Explanation: male, 38, 130 pounds. Skinny, low muscle mass but have a beer keg belly.

My day is 7am wake up. Get kids to school. Work until 5. Get kids from school. Cook, shower and then I’m exhausted AF.

I’m semi fit? I’m a mechanic professionally and spring til summer I mountain bike regularly. So my calves are monsters.

But would like… basic at home sit ups. Push ups etc like on a Saturday, would that help at all?

    Nope.

    Diet. Not exercise.

          So to actually be helpful and answer op’s actual question.

          Any physical activity will help to an extent.

          What will help more for weight loss is counting calories and expending more than you consume.

          But if you want to have any kind of actual muscle tone you need to do resistance training, wrenching alone isn’t enough.

          If op is cool being skinny/ low muscle tone, then diet and cardio will do it. If op wants muscle tone then they should lift weights or do some resistance training like calisthenics.
